Dreaming @ HawkeyeNation

Right but wasn't Iowa down 35 at some point before Villanova took the foot off the pedal a little?

I think so. You know you are losing by a lot when you go on a 16-2 run and are still down 20 points. Credit to Nova for playing awesome and Iowa playing the same they did since February.
 
Don't hawk fans realize when they were going through this streak, that is was just like football. They were playing no one for months, and then when they finally played a good team they got completely pounded.

At this point we just have to tip our caps to Nova for destroying everyone in their path. Any time you beat a team by 44 a couple of months after losing by like 30 against the same team, that's absurdly good.
 
Is Iowa's only win over a team that won an NCAA Tournament game their win over Wichita State in November when the Shockers did not have VanVleet or Grady?

(Disclaimer: Iowa beat Michigan who won a play-in game but then lost their first real game)

I'm not sure, but the Big Ten certainly didn't have a good tournament so this may be the case. Yikes.
 
But they were supposed to be the best conference in the nation and it was proven they were not by the ACC.

i think that the ACC turned out to be a better conference. But no one seems to grasp the fact that the Big 12 has 10 teams. ACC has 15.
 
Wow, if you play 40 minutes of good basketball, you'll win. Mind blowing stuff.

They beat us for the first half of the game. And we won two tourney games. 50% of 2 is 1.

Mathed.
 
Iowa's January team could have easily kept up with either of those teams tonight. I wasn't impressed with unc or nova, especially down the stretch.
 
Iowa lost to the D1 and D2 National Champs this year...how can you call their schedule weak?
